"Big Hero 6" Hits SDCC With Some Great Footage

July 22, 2018

I got to see the first episode of Big Hero 6 The Series , but in all honesty that pilot was the only one. Though I really enjoyed it, I missed the others. So I really need to play catch up. However, I do love me some Baymax. So, if they felt these clips were enough for SDCC I had to check em out. First up was Mini Max. This had Scrappy Doo written all over it. They even imply it in description, only to totally, & quite hilariously flip the script. I liked the other two more, even though I saw them out of order. The second is Karmi's Fan Fiction. Apparently, Karmi is a girl that has a crush on "superhero" Hiro, but not so much "normal guy" Hiro. This is her Big Hero 6 fan fiction. There's even a payoff in the next video I didn't get, because I saw it out of order. I dug the "cutesy" animation style of this one though. I'm hoping that makes it's way onto a tee. That, & the subject of the third video in this lineup for that matter. The first look at Baymax's Overdrive Mode! He not only looked awesome, the effects afterwards were totally on point. With these videos powers combined, Big Hero 6 has jumped on the top of my catch up watch list. I've got some watching to do to get ready for these new episodes. What did y'all think? Did y'all dig these as much as I did? Let me know. Put it in the comments, like, & share.

"Big Hero 6: The Series" To Start Off With One Hour Movie, "Baymax Returns"

October 18, 2017

Looks like we're going to pick up exactly where we left off. Monday, November 20th on Disney Channel & Disney XD, Big Hero 6: The Series kicks off with a one-hour television movie Baymax Returns. It picks up where we left off with Hiro setting off to rebuild Baymax, as well as starting off as a student at San Fransokyo Institute of Technology. The whole teams returns for the movie as well as the series that will follow early 2018. If you want to get an early jump on it though, 2 full length preview episodes will debut exclusively on the DisneyNOW app & Disney XD VOD immediately after the TV movie. Starting the 24th new shorts will begin to roll out, as well as an interactive virtual assistant "Pocket Baymax" on the DisneyNOW app. I can't wait for this movie. I've already been super pumped for this series, as I love Big Hero 6. This though? It's put my anticipation through the roof. When they started showing the previews for this all I could think about was Hiro putting Baymax back together. Now that I know for sure we're going to get just that, November 20th may just be to long to wait. What do y'all think though? Put it in the comments, like, & share.

Disney XD Teases "Big Hero 6: The Series"

July 22, 2017

Disney XD unveiled some of what's coming soon at San Diego Comic Con. Included was this sneak peak of fall's Big Hero 6: The Series. I was a little put off when I saw the animation earlier this year, as it's not at all what we got in the film. This sneak peak has officially got me excited though. This looks like it's going to be a really good addition to Disney XD's lineup. This sneak peak comes from an episode titled Fred's Bro-Trillion as Hiro & Baymax get trapped in super villain Baron Von Steamer's lair. The whole series will pick up immediately after the events of the Academy Award winning Big Hero 6, continuing the friendship between Hiro & Baymax, his inflatable healthcare companion. Like I said this clip has put this on my must see list for the fall. How about y'all? Will y'all be catching the further adventures of Big Hero 6? Let us know in the comments, like, & share.

Michelle Rejwan Now Senior VP Live Action Development And Production For Lucasfilm

Hollywood Reporter reports Michelle Rejwan is now the Senior VP of Live Action Development & Production. She will oversee new feature films as well Disney+ series while still producing with president Kathleen Kennedy. That seems like a hefty responsibility to drop on someone who's previous credits at Lucasfilm are producing The Force Awakens & The Rise of Skywalker. Kennedy really sees something in her though, having “seen first-hand her skills collaborating with writers and directors, and I've been incredibly impressed with her creative skills and her ability to manage the complexity surrounding these massive projects.” Can she be the Feige of Star Wars? Time will tell. After the hate Kennedy got from the last installment, which I loved by the way, one could think this is just to give her a scapegoat if things don't go as well over the next few projects. Curious to see how much influence this winds up having as a whole. What do y'all think? Trust in Kennedy? Or do you think maybe a more vetted choice would have been better?

Disney Reveals Name of Tokyo DisneySea's 8th Port

After breaking ground in what is to become Tokyo DisneySea's 8th port, we now have its official name. Fantasy Springs will be the title, but that's not all Dismey released on the subject. They also released some beautiful day & night concept art depicting the look of the new lands. Oriental land is investing 250 Billion Yen on this project that will feature lands themed to Frozen, Tangled, & Peter Pan. Frozen's land of post film Arendelle will feature an attraction that tells the story of Elsa and her beloved sister, Anna. Sounding like the familiar Epcot ride, suests will board boats and experience the sisters’ heartfelt journey, enjoying songs from the film, and encountering surprising thrills. There will also be a restaurant set inside the beautiful Arendelle Castle. Tangled's land will naturally feature Rapunzel’s tower rising above the forest. It will also include an boat attraction where guests will board gondolas for a romantic boat tour of Rapunzel’s “Best Day Ever” as she journeys with Flynn to the lantern festival. Flickering lanterns illuminate the attraction’s climactic scene while Rapunzel and Flynn sing an iconic song from the film. The pand will also feature a restaurant, inspired by the hideout of the band of thugs who appeared in the film in the "I've Got A Dream" sequence. Neverland will also be home to two attractions and a restaurant. Featuring landmarks including verdant mountains, Captain Hook’s pirate ship and Skull Rock. One attraction will fly over the jungles of Neverland into a battle with Captain Hook and his crew of pirates to rescue Wendy’s younger brother, John, who has been kidnapped by Captain Hook and his pirates. You'll board boats and follow the Lost Boys down a river until Tinker Bell sprinkles the boats with pixie dust, & you take off flying through Neverland on an adventure that featuring iconic music and dynamic 3D imagery of the characters from the film. The second attraction immerses us in the oversized world of Pixie Hollow, while the restaurant is inspired by the Lost Boys and their hideout. There will also be a new Disney Hllyel in the park. Themed to Disney fantasy, it will rise above and around the magical springs that serve as the core of the new themed port’s story. Offering 475 deluxe-type and luxury-type guest rooms, this park facing hotel will also feature a merchandise shop that helps share the story of the magical springs. One day I'll make it out here to see all the amazingly beautiful things TokyoSea has to offer. Luckily, I have one more reason to postpone that adventure until this amazing new addition is done.
